Mutant Chronicles movie based on the RPG coming in 2008
Mutant Chronicles is an upcoming film based on the pen-and-paper RPG of the same name featuring elements of science fiction, steampunk, horror and action. The independent film is being directed by Simon Hunter and stars Thomas Jane (of The Punisher movie fame) and Ron Perlman (Hellboy I & II).
PLOT
The story is set in the year 2707. Like the Mutant Chronicles role-playing game, nearly everything in the fictional world is powered by steam, since mankind has exhausted Earth’s natural resources. Four corporations have taken over the world and they are constantly at war with one another. These corporations are: the Bauhaus, the Mishima, the Capitol and the Imperial. During a battle between two of the corporate forces, an ancient machine is unburied and mutants swarm the world. A team of unlikely heroes set off to destroy the machine and save mankind.
Mitch Hunter and Nathan Rooker, battle hardened Capitol soldiers, fight a desperate battle against a Bauhaus advance. When an errant shell destroys an ancient stone seal, they find themselves facing a new enemy: hideous necro-mutants, with bone blades that grow from their arms. Mitch barely manages to escape. Nathan does not.
The mutants multiply by millions and destroy all before them. The corporations’ leader, Constantine, is about to abandon the planet and leave countless innocents to their desperate fate, when he is approached by Brother Samuel, leader of the Brotherhood, an ancient monastic order.
Samuel is keeper of the Chronicles, a book that prophesies both the rise of the mutants, and the ‘Deliverer’ that will destroy them. Samuel believes he is that Deliverer destined to journey deep into the earth and destroy the source of the mutant scourge.
He manages to recruit Mitch, along with a handful of like-minded soldiers: Steiner, honor bound Bauhaus officer; sword wielding Severian; street fighter El Jesus; fearless beauty Duval; and stoic warrior Juba.
“Mutant Chronicle” follows Mitch and Samuel’s mission to venture into the very heart of the darkness in an attempt to save the planet from marauding hordes of deathless mutants.
